Official Form 101

Voluntary Petition for Individuals Filing for Bankruptcy 12/15

The bankruptcy forms use you and Debtor 1 to refer to a debtor filing alone. A married couple may file a bankruptcy case together—called a joint

case—and in joint cases, these forms use you to ask for information from both debtors. For example, if a form asks, “Do you own a car,” the answer

would be yes if either debtor owns a car. When information is needed about the spouses separately, the form uses Debtor 1 and Debtor 2 to distinguish

between them. In joint cases, one of the spouses must report information as Debtor 1 and the other as Debtor 2. The same person must be Debtor 1 in

all of the forms.

Be as complete and accurate as possible. If two married people are filing together, both are equally responsible for supplying correct information. If

more space is needed, attach a separate sheet to this form. On the top of any additional pages, write your name and case number (if known). Answer

every question.

STATEMENT OF INFORMATION REQUIRED BY 11 U.S.C. §341

INTRODUCTION

Pursuant to the Bankruptcy Reform Act of 1994, the Office of the United States Trustee, United States Department of Justice, has prepared this information sheet to help

you understand some of the possible consequences of filing a bankruptcy petition under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code. This information is intended to make you

aware of...

(1) the potential consequences of seeking a discharge in bankruptcy, including the effects on credit history;

(2) the effect of receiving a discharge of debts

(3) the effect of reaffirming a debt; and

(4) your ability to file a petition under a different chapter of the Bankruptcy Code.

There are many other provisions of the Bankruptcy Code that may affect your situation. This information sheet contains only general principles of law and is not a

substitute for legal advice. If you have questions or need further information as to how the bankruptcy laws apply to your specific case, you should consult with your

lawyer.

WHAT IS A DISCHARGE?

The filing of a chapter 7 petition is designed to result in a discharge of most of the debts you listed on your bankruptcy schedules. A discharge is a court order that says

you do not have to repay your debts, but there are a number of exceptions. Debts which may not be discharged in your chapter 7 case include, for example, most taxes,

child support, alimony, and student loans; court-ordered fines and restitution; debts obtained through fraud or deception; and personal injury debts caused by driving

while intoxicated or taking drugs. Your discharge may be denied entirely if you, for example, destroy or conceal property; destroy, conceal or falsify records; or make a

false oath. Creditors cannot ask you to pay any debts which have been discharged. You can only receive a chapter 7 discharge once every eight (8) years.

WHAT ARE THE POTENTIAL EFFECTS OF A DISCHARGE?

The fact that you filed bankruptcy can appear on your credit report for as long as 10 years. Thus, filing a bankruptcy petition may affect your ability to obtain credit in

the future. Also, you may not be excused from repaying any debts that were not listed on your bankruptcy schedules or that you incurred after you filed for bankruptcy.

WHAT ARE THE EFFECTS OF REAFFIRMING A DEBT?

After you file your petition, a creditor may ask you to reaffirm a certain debt or you may seek to do so on your own. Reaffirming a debt means that you sign and file

with the court a legally enforceable document, which states that you promise to repay all or a portion of the debt that may otherwise have been discharged in your

bankruptcy case. Reaffirmation agreements must generally be filed with the court within 60 days after the first meeting of the creditors.

Reaffirmation agreements are strictly voluntary — they are not required by the Bankruptcy Code or other state or federal law. You can voluntarily repay any debt

instead of signing a reaffirmation agreement, but there may be valid reasons for wanting to reaffirm a particular debt.

Reaffirmation agreements must not impose an undue burden on you or your dependents and must be in your best interest. If you decide to sign a reaffirmation

agreement, you may cancel it at any time before the court issues your discharge order or within sixty (60) days after the reaffirmation agreement was filed with the

court, whichever is later. If you reaffirm a debt and fail to make the payments required in the reaffirmation agreement, the creditor can take action against you to

recover any property that was given as security for the loan and you may remain personally liable for any remaining debt.

OTHER BANKRUPTCY OPTIONS

You have a choice in deciding what chapter of the Bankruptcy Code will best suit your needs. Even if you have already filed for relief under chapter 7, you may be

eligible to convert your case to a different chapter.

Chapter 7 is the liquidation chapter of the Bankruptcy Code. Under chapter 7, a trustee is appointed to collect and sell, if economically feasible, all property you own

that is not exempt from these actions.

Chapter 11 is the reorganization chapter most commonly used by businesses, but it is also available to individuals. Creditors vote on whether to accept or reject a plan,

which also must be approved by the court. While the debtor normally remains in control of the assets, the court can order the appointment of a trustee to take possession

and control of the business.

Chapter 12 offers bankruptcy relief to those who qualify as family farmers. Family farmers must propose a plan to repay their creditors over a three-to-five year period

and it must be approved by the court. Plan payments are made through a chapter 12 trustee, who also monitors the debtor’s farming operations during the pendency of

the plan.

Finally, chapter 13 generally permits individuals to keep their property by repaying creditors out of their future income. Each chapter 13 debtor writes a plan which

must be approved by the bankruptcy court. The debtor must pay the chapter 13 trustee the amounts set forth in their plan. Debtors receive a discharge after they

complete their chapter 13 repayment plan. Chapter 13 is only available to individuals with regular income whose debts do not exceed $1,347,500 ($336,900 in

unsecured debts and $1,010,650 in secured debts).

AGAIN, PLEASE SPEAK TO YOUR LAWYER IF YOU NEED FURTHER INFORMATION OR EXPLANATION,

INCLUDING HOW THE BANKRUPTCY LAWS RELATE TO YOUR SPECIFIC CASE.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT BANKRUPTCY ASSISTANCE

SERVICES FROM AN ATTORNEY OR BANKRUPTCY PETITION

PREPARER.

If you decide to seek bankruptcy relief, you can represent yourself, you can hire an attorney to

represent you, or you can get help in some localities from a bankruptcy petition preparer who is

not an attorney. THE LAW REQUIRES AN ATTORNEY OR BANKRUPTCY PETITION

PREPARER TO GIVE YOU A WRITTEN CONTRACT SPECIFYING WHAT THE

ATTORNEY OR BANKRUPTCY PETITION PREPARER WILL DO FOR YOU AND HOW

MUCH IT WILL COST. Ask to see the contract before you hire anyone.

The following information helps you understand what must be done in a routine bankruptcy case

to help you evaluate how much service you need. Although bankruptcy can be complex, many

cases are routine.

Before filing a bankruptcy case, either you or your attorney should analyze your eligibility for

different forms of debt relief available under the Bankruptcy Code and which form of relief is

most likely to be beneficial for you. Be sure you understand the relief you can obtain and its

limitations. To file a bankruptcy case, documents called a Petition, Schedules, and Statement of

Financial Affairs, and in some cases a Statement of Intention, need to be prepared correctly and

filed with the bankruptcy court. You will have to pay a filing fee to the bankruptcy court. Once

your case starts, you will have to attend the required first meeting of the creditors where you may

be questioned by a court official called a 'trustee' and by creditors.

If you choose to file a chapter 7 case, you may be asked by a creditor to reaffirm a debt. You

may want help deciding whether to do so. A creditor is not permitted to coerce you into

reaffirming your debts.

If you choose to file a chapter 13 case in which you repay your creditors what you can afford

over 3 to 5 years, you may also want help with preparing your chapter 13 plan and with the

confirmation hearing on your plan which will be before a bankruptcy judge.

If you select another type of relief under the Bankruptcy Code other than chapter 7 or chapter 13,

you will want to find out what should be done from someone familiar with that type of relief.

Your bankruptcy case may also involve litigation. You are generally permitted to represent

yourself in litigation in bankruptcy court, but only attorneys, not bankruptcy petition preparers,

can give you legal advice.
